Gino Vannelli - These Are The Days.......2007-05-30

The man still has it! This CD is a perfect demonstration of his growth and flexibility. Although his old music is classic, he has also dispensed new material in the opera and jazz genres as well. My favorites on this CD are "Venus Envy", "Right Where I Am", and "It's Only Love". These should receive much more airplay than they do. Its too bad Mr. Vannelli's music is still as underrated as it is!

Gino's latest...... " These Are The Day's ".......2007-03-20

This album was released in fall of 2006 and for me I have been playing it every day. The first half of the CD - 7 tracks - is new material and show Gino's range of writing skills, just like his last album Canto from 2003. The reason that I gave it 4 stars out of 5 is I was disapointed in the second half of the album. They are older songs from past albums which would have been OK had he put a new spin too them. I know from watching a DVD about the last album Canto and his mind set about what all the album was too be about, that he had a slower version of "I Just Wanna Stop". It was live on stage with the full orchastria and showed his openness to rethink a song in his past and make it sound new. So I was hoping this would be on the CD but sadly it was not to be, but still a good listen of your time. I have been a dedicated fan of his work since 1976 when I saw him live and I have every album and half of his concert tour DVD's, so I know a little about his unique sound.

Mellow fun tunes.......2007-01-08

Finally something new from one of my favorite artists. The new stuff is quite good, kind of jazzy and fun, but still not as great as some of my earlier favorites. Generallly upbeat, great vocals. Should be liked by most Gino fans.

He's Back!!!.......2006-07-27

Yes, we all know half the CD is "old stuff." Whatever- I'm paying for the new stuff. "It's Only Love" is probably the hippest thing he's ever done. A guy trying to be cool about getting dumped, "excuse me while I go off and die." You have to listen to it over and over to catch everything. "Venus Envy" would be my second favorite. Its message is great- why do women feel they need all that plastic surgery?

"Great Divide" is so sad, so full of that realization that, "Oh, boy, I have really screwed up my life."

It's also great to hear his voice sounding as good as twenty years ago. So many singers really lose range and force as they age. No, he's not going to hit those "Fly into this Night" high notes. He's 54, okay? But, with this release, I think Gino can really get the spotlight back on himself, gain better backing, and really come out with some terrific stuff in the future.

new good, and old still good.......2006-07-13

the only thing about this cd that is bad is all the songs were not new, but Im glad for the new 6 and they are really good.
they are not the old sound from the 70's but they are good .
he has gone a new way on some of the new songs and they are very
good with a little twist here and there with a sound he has never done before which is good seeing this is 2006, I hope tho that he goes on tour to sapport this cd cos he would sell a lot more if he did.Is this something your need to have ? Yes!

Brings back memories.......2006-08-14

Each time I listen to 'O' it brings back a wonderful sense of nostalgia. When the gorgeous, sorrowful longing of "Jeux D'Eau" starts playing I get tingles all over my body, just as I did when I first saw the show at the Bellagio in Las Vegas and the red velvet curtains dropped to reveal the most mesmerizing show I have ever seen on stage - or, in this case, in water.

The story itself is complex yet breathtaking (you can interpret its meaning whichever way you'd like), and the wide range of emotions the music emits only further enhances the sweeping away part.

The melodies are mournful, jubilant, and, as ever, magical...

In short, these beautiful compositions will make you FEEL. So buy this soundtrack, and go see the show if you haven't already!

One of my favorite Cirque CD's!.......2006-08-08

What takes a Cirque show to another level is the meshing of amazing music into nearly every act. The music brings back the feeling of that night. If you saw the show, and loved it as I did, then the CD is a must have. I would recommend it even for people who have not seen the marvelous show known as "O". This very well be my second favorite Cirque soundtrack, behind Alegria(and Francesca Gagnon) of course;-)

After I saw the show at the Bellagio and left without this CD, I regretted it very much. Music is integral to any Cirque du Soleil show, but this one even moreso than most. These songs bring back the feeling of that magical night. The haunting and lamenting voice in Nostalgie brings back the show as if I were there again. Other favorites are Jeux d'Eau, Mer Noire, Tzelma......and of course "O".

A must own for any lover of Cirque du Soleil!

'Tis my favorite!.......2006-04-08

Funny thing is, I haven't even seen the show for "O," but I have had this album for 5 years now and it has quickly grown to become among my favorite albums of all time. This is probably my favorite cirque du soleil album. While it is versatile in different styles with a clash influence of popular and classical music, such sweet harmonious sounds and a tasteful blend of timbres create a colorful soundtrack to what I could picture to be an incredible show. If they will ever do the show "O" again I'm gonna see it. "Africa" and "Remous" are especially good, as they show much contrast in dynamics, texture, style, and timbre, as well as interpolating background effects to create a vision that one is in Africa during the night. "Gamelan," "Ephra," and "desert" are very well written songs, as well as the title track itself. If you love their music, this is definitely the cream of the crop.

Sexy, Scintillating, Provocative, Nubile & Brilliant.......2006-03-21

As with all the works of Cirque Du Soliel, the music is a vital contributor to the magic.
The "O" Soundtrack is no exception.
Having seen many Cirque Du Soliel performances I find myself
remembering the music more than the amazing acrobatics.
Since I have not had the pleasure of seeing "O" in Las
Vegas, the music has given me an amazing sexy score of
beautifully arranged & elegant sounding symphonies, that matched with amazing aquatic performances, would simply blow me away.
If you are a fan of Cirque, you will love this soundtrack.
5 Stars. Excellent. Nouveau

Benoit Jutras outdid himself on this one. .......2005-12-04

It's a great CD, buy it. Although some songs are a bit mediocre, like "Africa" and "Terre Aride" the CD is still worth listening to.

1. Jeux d'Eau: Wow, this song brings back memories. Sounds like the name of the song: "Dancing Waters!" Very peaceful, with the bells in the background. Kind of Christmas..ish.

2. Mer Noire: Kind of reminds of me of Spanish people.

3. Tzelma: The title reminds me of Aztec people, yet the music reminds me of the Chiquita lady with the fruit in her hat. 0_o.

4. Africa: Kind of boring.

5. Remous: VERY weird, but great. Reminds me of Scottish bagpipes and rainforests at the same time. Benoit Jutras outdid himself with this one.

6. Svecounia: The beginning sounds like fat ladies bouncing up and down in a sleazy setting, but the rest sounds really nice.

7. Nostalgie: Exactly what it sounds like. I love the erhu in the background.

8. Simcha: Great party song. (Let's par-TAY!)

9. Gamelan: Best song on CD. Period.

10. Ephra: Beginning sounds kind of bouncy, middle, sounds rock-ish. When I brought it to class, someone mistook it for a Yu-Gi-Oh! soundtrack. Kinda weird. Nevertheless, a great song.

11. Desert: Mediocre.

12. Terre Aride: Kind of long, and boring.

13. O: Short and sweet, great way to end a CD. Reminds of that theme from "Cats."

Well, enjoy the CD!

Customer Reviews:

Admittedly biased.......2006-04-20

I am, I admit, utterly biased. I worked for the show several years ago, my husband is one of the musicians (when you hear the sax on this CD, that's him) and I have a deep and abiding love and respect for the show, the music and above and beyond all else, the artists who make the experience of show and music what it is: Magical.
One of the suggestions I would make for any Cirque show is don't expect to understand it, just enjoy the energy swirling around - enjoy the music (and don't expect to understand the language, real language is rarely used - call it langue du Cirque - language of the Cirque - if you will - please also understand that most CD's only have a certain amount of time/space available - everything just couldn't fit - you can imagine I'm sure how difficult it was to choose the music to put on - but knowing the work of Benoit Jutras and the caliber of the musicians on the show then and now, these are some of the most professional, beautiful people - I'm not speaking of physical beauty, I'm speaking of artistic beauty - there is soul in this music, there is a sense of what the show is when you listen. Above all, there is everything from longing to celebration in this music. Cirque du Soleil is about losing yourself in a world of magic and artistry - why overanalyze it? Just enjoy the magic, enjoy the ride, enjoy the Cirque...

The music brought it all back.......2005-10-26

I've seen O twice. There's so much going on that you can't get it all the first time. The music brought each part back. If you've not seen one of these shows, DO IT. They're expensive, but when you get in, it makes sense. Can't wait to see Corteo when it comes this way!

Disappointing.......2005-09-26

True, there were some good memories from the show, but overall this CD didn't stack up to other greats (like Quidam).

Since O is such a visually-based show, I needed to be there again. Plus, I think my favourite 30 minutes of music from the 90 minute show didn't make the 60 minute CD. There was one song from the barge sketch in particular that just knocked my socks off, and I was hoping to find it on the CD, but didn't. Hence my disappointment.

Excellent Soundtrack to a Sublime show........2004-09-06

If you have not seen a cirque du soleil show, treat yourself to one. The ticket price may be unreasonable, but when you see the production and feats of dexterity, strength and skill you'll understand where your money is going. The soundtrack to the show "O" (phonetic for "eau" or water, which is the main theme for this performance) is a diligent sampling of the music you will hear at Bellagio in Las Vegas. I warn the buyers of this CD that the show runs approximately 90 minutes, and the CD is only 60 or so. Therefore if you were expecting extended mixes to match your "O" experience 100%, you will be disappointed. The overall music selection is okay as a stand alone. I'd use it for background music while doing something else. If you've seen the show, this will definetely spark some vivid memories. My personal favorite is about 5 minutes into the 5th track, Remous. (the barge sketch)

In the Irish tradition.......2007-05-07

An excellent addition to any folk music library. Those with a love of music from Ireland and the Celtic harp will definitely enjoy this CD.

Excellent, Excellent.......2006-12-30

I heard so much about the Chieftans, so I thought I would pick up a cd by them. I'm really glad this was my first Chieftans cd. It's very well done, and it's got some great material on it. I recommend this!

The Green Fields Of America.......2006-08-30

This is a very fine example of Irish music by The Chieftains. The reason for me to buy this CD: it is recorded at the Utility Muffin Research Kitchen (UMRK)of Frank Zappa. And the track The Green Fields Of America was a favorite of Frank. The Chieftains came to visit Frank, but he just died. Kevin Conneff was singing The Green Fields at the grave. Sad but true.

An Irish Classic.......2006-07-28

I do not claim to be an authority on Irish folk music, but if you are a fan of any sort of beautiful, haunting and memorable tunes, this cd will be one you'll play over and over again. The version of the famous "Wild Geese" is very moving and conjures images of ships sailing from the rugged coast of Ireland, perhaps never to return. "The Green Fields of America" was written during the tragic famine of the 19th century, as this ditty describes the story of a young Irishman who has decided to sail for America where a better life awaits him, yet regretting the fact he will never see his parents again. As I had some Irish ancestors who found themselves in this same situation more than 150 years ago, this song is very powerful to me. Other highlights on this album include the harp solo "Madame Cole" and also the last track, "A Lament for Limerick" which is really heartfelt and you can tell the musicians really believed in the notes they were playing. The accoustics on this album are really nice and the reverb adds a lot of atmosphere to each track. The liner notes are also very informative, providing the historical background to each song which is essential to understanding how and why the music was created. Overall, this cd is a wonderful exploration into the rich musical heritage of the Emerald Isle.

A Superior Celtic Album. Not the best Chieftains or Harp CD.......2005-08-16

`The Celtic Harp' by The Chieftains is a very nice means by which this leading Irish music group can avoid simply performing `The Irish Song' over and over again. (While I do not subscribe to the theory that there is but one Irish song, done with different instruments and different beats and different dance steps, there is an undeniable sameness, similar to the sameness in all blues songs. While blues performers escape this sameness with their innovative guitar playing, this improvisational tradition has not reached the Emerald Isle yet).

And yet, this album seems to be a bit less successful than other recent Chieftain diversions such as their `Santiago' album with Basque music, `Irish Heartbeat' with Van Morrison, and `The Long Gray Veil' starring Sting and Mick and Van and a cast of thousands.

The album is subtitled `A Tribute to Edward Bunting' with contributions from the Belfast Harp Orchestra. But, checking the back of the album shows that the Harp Orchestra appears on only four of the twelve cuts, and, to my non-Irish ears, I do not hear the harp as the featured instrument on some of the tracks.

While I am not an expert on Celtic music, I am very fond of Robin Williamson's songs and music, and I find his Irish Harp work as good or better, or at least more interesting than what I find on this album. This may have a lot to do with Williamson's more interesting lyrics and stories, but the end result is the same. This may not be the best Irish harp album on the block.

The significance of Edward Bunting is that he was an Irish composer born in 1792, so this album is done on the bicentennary of his birth.

If you are a Chieftains fan, you must have this album. If you are a harp fan, this just may not be the best exemplar of Irish harp music, in spite of the fact that it is an enjoyable `Irish' album with excellent vocals on `The Green Hills of America' by Kevin Conneff.

I recently ordered and have just received the above mentioned album.
THANK YOU........
I ordered it just to have a copy of "Amazing Grace" on bagpipes, but after listening to the album, I am completely blown away. It is perhaps the greatest piece of music I now own. Depending on the song, I can get lifted up, mellowed out, or layed back, again THANK YOU, for having this album. I'm a very satisfied customer.

Not a Great CD.......2003-11-07

This CD was originally longer with more titles. It seems the Altissimo! people after they acquired it from the Canadian Scottish cut out several titles and reduced the overall quality of the CD. Because of this and various other technical factors I would not recommend this CD at this inflated price.

Patriotism with gusto!.......2007-06-11

This CD of John McDermott performing patriotic songs now becomes the standard of this genre. His rich, heartfelt tenor wraps itself around songs that are heard often but makes each one his own. You will find yourself standing up and saluting the flag of your nation : )

Whatever he chooses to sing, his versions become the one for others to try to reach. His voice is unique, his style, from the heart. What a perfect mix. With current events driving both Canada and the US into factions, isn't it nice to hear someone who is not afraid of showing where his feelings lie? His rendition of God Bless America rings out with his love of the country that he has visited many times in his life. What a wonderful gift to us in America!

Waste of money........2007-05-22

It's amazing how some one could take such inspiring songs and national anthems and make them sound like something done by some lounge singer. No doubt this guy has a terrific voice, but the arrangements are dull and boring. Absolutely no emotion in them at all. Sound like the same stuff you would hear in any elevator. If you want a good version of "O Canada" go to Youtube and listen to any of the numerous version on there. They're all better than what you hear on this sleeping pill.
